According to MTV, the Rose Bowl is "the home of the University of Southern California football team." Inhabiting the stadium throughout the fall apparently isn't enough for us to call the place home; we have to win a few Rose Bowls to get the title back! Maybe this kind of journalism will motivate our Bruins to find the elusive "focus" that will enable them to catch footballs and make tackles.

By the way, are there any Bruins Nation gatherings at the Rose Bowl? I'll be in town for the UCLA vs. Washington game and figured I'd see who else will be there.
